JazzWax: Interview with Brooks Tegler & corrections

As a follow up to my review of his big band last Saturday night, here's an interesting interview with Brooks Tegler on Jazzwax.com. Also a correction from yesterday's post.  Scott Silbert was the tenor saxaphonist on Saturday night, not Silver as I misheard and wrote.  You can read about him by following this link.

Also, Don Lerman was on sax, not sex as I mistyped.  Baritone with the big band and alto, I think, with the small group.
